ndaholic Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 So I will be going to my first Sox game next month and would really appreciate advice on seats, bars, food, etc... It's just me and a friend and we are thinking about getting the $42 patio passes for the two hours of food and beer. Is this worth it? Or should we just hang out at the Bullpen sports bar or the Chisox bar and grill? We don't need expensive seats, just going to have fun, experience the environment and drink beer. Also, where do you guys suggest we go after the game for food and a good variety of beer? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have some patio party discounts there that will make it more than worth it if you are halfway hungry and are ready to drink. You get a patio party and a lower deck ticket for $40-50. A little more for the Yankees. Edited April 22, 2014 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 The Patio Party is a great deal if you can get it on sale. Eat as much as you can before you get kicked out for the game. Same with drinking. You used to also be able to carry out a drink or two, check on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the deals on the White Sox page considered a sale or best pricing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend sending a private message to this guy. He is the most up to date on Sox ticket info. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showuser=7106 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndaholic Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 So what about the Bullpen Sports bar and any cool places after the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I bet sitting in the K-Zone(section 154) would be cool, but that section is on the DL for right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndaholic Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 So how is beer served in the patio area? Is it easy to get as many as you want? Is it a bar and the beer comes in cups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndaholic Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 23, 2014 -> 10:30 PM) I thought it was 2 beers per ID? So two at a time? If that's the case then I'm good. Is it really packed therefore having to stand in line to get beer and taking forever? I want to maximize my beer drinking time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait times for a beer are less than a minute.Last one I was at was vs. Boston a couple of years ago. There couldn't have been more than 25 people total. It was Labor Day weekend though. It stays open a half hour after the game starts, and you can take a beer with you when you leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
